What color is Benjamin Moore Limeade?

Benjamin Moore Limeade CSP-865 is a mid-tone yellow-green with a softened, earthy cast rather than a sharp neon edge. Its noticeable yellow base gives it warmth, while the green keeps it lively and botanical. In bright daylight, Limeade reads clearer and more energetic; under warmer evening lighting, it can take on a more olive-leaning look. It makes a confident choice for a breakfast nook, mudroom, or painted cabinet front, especially when grounded with warm white walls, natural oak, woven textures, or matte black hardware. For a quieter scheme, pair this shade with muted clay, deep moss, or charcoal accents.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).

Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 44.7%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
